Feature:
The tuners feel a tad wobly at times, but hardly at all, and other than that it's perfect.

Quality:
Like I said earlier the tuners are the only thing lacking at all, and they function perfectly, they just feel a little wobly. The guitar itself is way better than you would expect for the price. It's made out of nice, real, high quality wood. It holds up really well to being swung around in and out of car trunks, left in bad weather/climate conditions indoors and outdoors, and it doesn't mar easily when occasionly knocked into a chair or something (not that I have done those things, of course I haven't, never :}).

Value:
A perfect guitar for the price, especially for someone who values convenience and portability.

Desirability:
It's very pretty, it has the cool old style headstock, and it's not so flashy that you're afraid to use it for fear of getting it dirty.

Sound:
For it's size and price this guitar sounds wonderful, and it is one of the prettiest sounding guitars I have ever heard.

Ease of Use:
THE EASIEST GUITAR EVER. It fits perfectly in my lap, it's super light weight (without feeling fragile), the short scale makes it super gentle on your fingers and you don't have to reach for low notes, it's very easy to tune, etc., etc., etc. Ease of use wise this guitar is PERFECT.

Support:
I gave it a ten because I don't know how good Yamaha's support is, but they're from Japan, so it's probably really good. Plus, why would you ever need support for this guitar?

Overall:
My favorite acoustic guitar to play that I've ever played, and I have played quite possibly hundreds of guitars. It's the one I take with me, and the one I play most at home. It's my little baby.
